I worked at Both of the Ross’s in my town for 2 years and I was a Front End Supervisor and I loved some of my coworkers but my manager at the second store I worked at was the worst. She worked us all the time I never got days off because she would change the schedule on my day off and then call me saying I was on the schedule and if I didn’t show up I’d get written up for that day.. I got soooo much overtime even though we didn’t have the hours to give and then I’d get in trouble for working 15+ OT hours🙄
Hahaha love it. I worked at Ross for 3 1/2 years, manager for 2 of those. That place is a whole barnyard 😂 no worse customer than a Ross customer. And yes, SPS are overpaid door greeters.
lolol Barnyard yeah it was a hot mess. 😂 I wish I could do more as an Sps. it was so mind numbing to just stand there in a vest and have people test me :/
Had to quit, are Sps did nothing while are cashiers and fitting room struggled, not to mention they hire you and give you only 20 mins of training, its a good job if you like cashiering at a quick place and all but not for everyone, on to the next
Omg yes, I’ve worked at Ross for a year and a half and this is all so true. I started out in stock but made the not so wonderful choice of volunteering to learn the register during the holidays and I’ve been a cashier now pretty much 98% of the time, which I have come to hate because I feel like we get screwed over the most work wise, versus someone on the floor, or maybe that’s just my Ross. And the full time comment is TRUE. I work 8-9 hour shifts and I am slowly losing my sanity. My managers are SO cool tho so that makes it better.
You're lucky that you have cool managers. I am a so called social butterfly meaning I can't stay quiet. Im a person who likes to talk a lot so when I do I get in trouble for it. At first it was alright but by the time we had the third store manager I was pretty much screwed. Yeah being on register sucks because if theres a long line you can't really go to the restroom or take a break. In stock you're there a couple hours nobody bothers you and you're done. lol
That rap at the start. Aaawww I love seeing love and two people with a strong relationship. Congratulations. Also I start working at Ross. Thank you for the hard tag tip. I'm a look at the hard tags for now on.
Just got laid off aka terminated from Ross for getting punched I was SPS and I got to close to this guy trying to give "command presence" got to close and got punched . So two weeks later they lay me off AKA terminate a misleading position and frustrating as hell , messed up company.
For any future SPS: If you take your job seriously, observe and report. You will be promoted quickly. To another store and higher SPS title where you are allowed to do something. So hang in there, as numbing and testing it may be. That promotion is worth it.
I currently work at Ross as an SPS and honestly the job can be so mind numbing sometimes whenever the store is slow but if you have someone suspicious there makes the job enjoyable. I’ve seen some crazy shit and I’ve been an SPS for about a month now but I was a sales associate from when I started in September. I personally love working there because I have a great team and managers otherwise the job itself can be draining especially knowing people are constantly stealing. Just wanted to let others know that its really about your environment because having great coworkers and managers really make it worth Wild our store feels like a small family! I’m sorry to those who have not had the same experience with the company as I have.
I watched this video both before I was employed at Ross and some months after (now) and I can LITERALLY feel what you guys are saying... Ross was my worst job and I literally cannot stress that enough. This video stuck in my mind from up until I quit (legitimately like... 2 months at most) it was so awful.
ive been with ross for 2 and half years and i’m actually still working at ross and i just got promoted to area supervisor... hearing ross stories and honestly none of your stories were shocks to me lol it’s an everyday thing there! the store i work at doesn’t have SPS thank gosh... well it actually does kinda suck bc the cashiers have to greet and watch for suspicious ppl while they ring....
SPS is a great Job! I get 40 hours and our 2 mobiles get 20 hours each. Freaking shoplifters out is the best part of the job! 😂 Also we only stare and shadow with repeat shoplifters. Plus if our presence doesn't work and they steal, oh well... The store still makes 40-60 thousand dollars a day easily. Easiest job ever. It's only boring when our mobiles are not there and I'm by myself for 4-8 hours.
It makes me mad how high their sales are per day, yet they're always trying to shove us out the door because they have no payroll! Hard to pay bills or plan anything outside of work like that.
Are you still working there? I have orientation on Tuesday… Currently I work retail, but I’m watching all this videos and now I don’t know if I want to work there lol
What an old video lol, i currently work SPS at Ross here in California. The job isnt too good, as a part time worker theres many reasons to not work at Ross. Been there for over a year now and the worst part of the job is the check in, managers want that shit perfect. Other than that, the only fun part of the job is calling thieves out and getting it right and saying "i told you so" but some managers don't do their job right nor confront the thieves. Lots of thieves btw!
Hmmm.... I’m considering working here, for a weekend position? This seems like a completely different retail experience, in opposed to working at Brooks Brothers! Do they pay commission/incentive pay? I’m guessing, no!?
Our loss prevention guy is named Ernest and he is the sweetest guy but I got to see him upset after all the stolen merchandise and after he caught a lady with stolen product in her pockets
Haha "command presence", I remember hearing that all the time when I worked in the fitting room for 3 years. I always felt bad for SPS cuz all you have to do is walk around lol it seems mad boring.
Mario_chronic_ Vibezzz no you’ll be fine! It’s just really boring. Well at least where I was cuz I couldn’t talk. Sps do get a lot of freedom tho when it comes to walking around haha
@@LoveDF Yes they are doing a background check on me rn. I applied for sales associate its a seasonal job. But im extremely nervous. If theres any advice for me before i start that would be amazing!😊
Sim Full Bliss honestly It varies from Ross to Ross but my best advice would be to stay on the managers good side. Everyone likes someone who does their job so as long as you’re holding your weight everyone will be cool with you! Stay late if they ask and you have nothing to do because you’ll be at the top of the list for call ins and more hours if that’s what you desire :)
Sim Full Bliss girl good luck. The ross at work is horrible it’s my third day there and I’m ready to quit. They don’t respect the time I leave or breaks
Some don’t ask anything just your availability and if you go to school and a quick why do you wanna work here. I am doing an interview tomorrow. I’m going back after a long time. I did SPS, fitting room, and departments. They want me as area supervisor but that’s too much 😅
Im interested in getting your position as a store protention specialist i was wonder what were the pros and cons and about what age do you have to be for this job
SPS is the worst I worked as a cashier FES salesfloor and fitting room and I’ll have you know SPS is the worst although they don’t do much we get a lot of shit from everyone!!! The managers cashiers and salesfloor and blaming us for people stealing so I understand why sps get paid more then the rest I hated it and were always lacking people so if we called out it was a very big deal
is true that most everything is part time?? A really wont full time, but all of the video of ross say everygone work just 5 hours, a want to get the stokers job
I hate being in the fitting room. People do the most. Just hang the shit up and bring everything back up because no I'm not going inside to get anything for you. I can't wait to leave Ross and make my video. And FES position is horrible to especially for backup FES because you have to deal with the bs, but don't get the pay
10:19 most gangster's the real ones don't steal from my experience as SPS , they don't greet you lol got to maintain their thuggish appearance but ultimately they leave buying stuff they got cash from slanging that dope lol , it's the ones that do the dope , the people that look high on meth or crack or coming down off of it are most likely the thief's , one stereotype case is transients most of the time 60% they don't steal just wanting a break from the shade or have a little money buy some socks or undies. In my experience like I said it's the ones who look like thier on something little skinny gangsters that look like their name would be smoke daag , and the ones that will actually punch you square faces built like little tanks sweaty in the face with beedy eyes lol.
I would like to see if could work at Ross Department Store My attitude have to change no negative stay away from bad attitude people keep focus my eyes on the job task one step a time with god/jesus/holy spirit
Lol sounds like lazy people.. Remember you were getting paid so how sad that you thought you were treated like a slave. Research what slaves really went through.
I currently work at Ross and i work in the fitting rooms. i love it. My management team is awesome and so is all my coworkers
Agreed. Some people are people happy positive - others complain...
Yeah I feel it. I used to have a great management team until they all got swapped out
I worked at Both of the Ross’s in my town for 2 years and I was a Front End Supervisor and I loved some of my coworkers but my manager at the second store I worked at was the worst. She worked us all the time I never got days off because she would change the schedule on my day off and then call me saying I was on the schedule and if I didn’t show up I’d get written up for that day..

I worked in DC worst place I ever had. HR bitches as attitude I’d you like the job move on simple as that.
This video is no joke. Retail is always a lousy job, but Ross takes it to another level.
Jessica Hill lol one hundred percent 😂😂
Hahaha love it. I worked at Ross for 3 1/2 years, manager for 2 of those. That place is a whole barnyard 😂 no worse customer than a Ross customer. And yes, SPS are overpaid door greeters.
lolol Barnyard
yeah it was a hot mess. 😂
I wish I could do more as an Sps. it was so mind numbing to just stand there in a vest and have people test me :/
FACTS AF LOL SPS get paid to say hi while we work our ASS off for less pay smh
Had to quit, are Sps did nothing while are cashiers and fitting room struggled, not to mention they hire you and give you only 20 mins of training, its a good job if you like cashiering at a quick place and all but not for everyone, on to the next
@@alexisacosta8174 I can't even argue 😂 Its true, but at the same time we get chewed out a lot by the bigger bosses for doing our job correctly.
@@rexkid123 Yes on to the next. All my friends quit around the same time. They treat you like a little kid.

Same full time it's stressful nor worth the stress

Ross was my worst job and I literally cannot stress that enough. This video stuck in my mind from up until I quit (legitimately like... 2 months at most) it was so awful.
Management was the worst part & I legitimately quit at the end of my shift one day lmao
Lmao, i didn't last 3 days literally tbh on register i wanted to jump over the counter. i left
ive been with ross for 2 and half years and i’m actually still working at ross and i just got promoted to area supervisor... hearing ross stories and honestly none of your stories were shocks to me lol it’s an everyday thing there! the store i work at doesn’t have SPS thank gosh... well it actually does kinda suck bc the cashiers have to greet and watch for suspicious ppl while they ring....
haileyy no sps? That’s weird lol

Yeah that’s when it was boring for me too!
@@jessicah3450 right? Then the higher ups and management complain how we are failing sizing, that everything is not where it is
I worked all those jobs, this is too real 🤣
The worst right? lol
Hi , what about if you don’t want to be at the register? Are you forced to be there ? My English is not good and I don’t want to work in the register…
Are you still working there? I have orientation on Tuesday… Currently I work retail, but I’m watching all this videos and now I don’t know if I want to work there lol

Blake Allen no to all that 😂😂
Lol a lot of women with cheap red or pink hair dyed watch out for them too LMAO
I’m an LP at Ross. They passed an agreement to apprehend
Killian Bailey really?? That’s new!! I used to work there in 2013
Love D&F yeah it all depends what area you’re In
Our loss prevention guy is named Ernest and he is the sweetest guy but I got to see him upset after all the stolen merchandise and after he caught a lady with stolen product in her pockets
Does anyone know why security guards follow me around? lve never stolen anything from ross.
Happens at every ross i go to
@@Cherrychess maybe cause you pretty and they all try to get yo number but to shy to ask 🙄
probably cause they like you and are checking you out lol
Haha "command presence", I remember hearing that all the time when I worked in the fitting room for 3 years. I always felt bad for SPS cuz all you have to do is walk around lol it seems mad boring.
Lmao! I use to work at Ross too, I feel you guys %100 haha truth.
lol you too! The Struggle was real! lol
Hi, I actually want to be an sps, but I dont have security training, do you think it matters?? And also is it hard?
Mario_chronic_ Vibezzz no you’ll be fine! It’s just really boring. Well at least where I was cuz I couldn’t talk.
Sps do get a lot of freedom tho when it comes to walking around haha

Hi, do you think you could help me with Ross situational questions? I desperately need this job😭 it’s 7 questions.
Some don’t ask anything just your availability and if you go to school and a quick why do you wanna work here. I am doing an interview tomorrow. I’m going back after a long time. I did SPS, fitting room, and departments. They want me as area supervisor but that’s too much 😅
10:01 thats so common especially on facebook, you go steal and charge 20% of the original price. its ridiculous
grey I know! It’s like really lol
Im interested in getting your position as a store protention specialist i was wonder what were the pros and cons and about what age do you have to be for this job
Can I wear my nose piercing someone pls tell me I start tomorrow 😭😭

It’s horrible just a glorified Goodwill
Ross is a streasful job never worked at cashier where they time you on how fast your doing
Your story is the ONLY ONE I've heard of when police became involved with the jackers.
I hate being in the fitting room. People do the most. Just hang the shit up and bring everything back up because no I'm not going inside to get anything for you. I can't wait to leave Ross and make my video. And FES position is horrible to especially for backup FES because you have to deal with the bs, but don't get the pay
I just quit after 4 years

Dust Crane dude honestly!
Dead-ass. Its the ladies and old women with tattoos that steal. And crack heads who use their kids to steal. Lol.
i’m an SPS too!!
Devin Sims is there any specific requirement/s to be a SPS?
Dsam01 nope I recommend you don’t do it. The check ins will get on your nerves . You can never give a good enough check in for them .
I’m currently a MSPS😂😂😂
jazmine gutierrez how do you like it?? Lol
I would like to see if could work at Ross Department Store My attitude have to change no negative stay away from bad attitude people keep focus my eyes on the job task one step a time with god/jesus/holy spirit
Am starting as a sps it’s good to know am not going to do anything 😀
It's great haha. I've been SPS for 8 months now. 12$ per hour to do nothing 😂
Is there any specific requirements to be sps?
I worked for two weeks i it felt like slave labor lol, for the amount of work you do...
Hi faby
HIiiiiii!!!!!
Lol sounds like lazy people.. Remember you were getting paid so how sad that you thought you were treated like a slave. Research what slaves really went through.
